wishing to compare two Sky Quality Meters with others'
colleagues,
I recently received a second SQM from Unihedron - a narrow beam one to complement the standard wide-beam one I purchased in ~September. I've begun a program of observations throughout Victoria, mainly in or near urban areas, to characterize the night sky (both zenith and at lower zenith angles) typically experienced away from dark sky sites.
I'll obviously inter-compare the two instruments I have at the first opportunity (in about a fortnight). It occurs to me that it would be useful if SQM users in Australia who live within a few hundred kilometres of each other might want to set up a chain of intercomparisons by meeting up whenever convenient and dark/cloud-free.
I live at Hoppers Crossing (30km west of melbourne), but am willing to drive to meet.
Anyone interested - in Victoria to begin with? PM me if so,
Jim Irish
